This year, we were honored once more with a visit by three teams from Taiwan. As the record shows (see www.arml.com<\/a>), these teams did fine work. The highest scoring Taiwan team scored on the level of the ten best American teams in the A division. The other two teams scored on the level of the top 12 in our B division.<\/p>\n

The Taiwanese visitors have established a parallel league to ARML, the Taiwan Regions Mathematics League. In their first year, TRML involved 80 teams, and next year they will host 280 teams.<\/p>\n
